Allow me to be a little nostalgic today.
As the Railways Minister of India, I was fortunate in planning and sanctioning series of Metro Railway corridors in metropolitan Kolkata. I had drawn the blueprints, arranged the funds, initiated the works and ensured that the different ends of the city ( Joka, Garia, Airport, Sector V, etc) were connected by an intra- city Metro grid.
Later, as the Chief Minister of West Bengal, I had the additional privilege of taking part in execution of the projects. From the State, I arranged free land, paved roads, arranged rehabilitation of displaced people, removed impediments, and ensured all help in the execution of projects. Our chief secretaries successively held series of coordination meeting to ensure integration of execution agencies. My planning as Railways Minister got fulfilment in my participation in execution.
Expanding Metro infrastructure has been a long journey for me. Allow me some nostalgia today.
@tjt4002 BJP only talk about Muslims, Jihadi, Sindur Vote Bank when they are in Backfoot...During the 2024 elections also we noticed similar things....BJP understood that their ground in Bengal is shallow...They have lost the existing ground....BJP cannot cross 60 this time in bengal
Karmasree Scheme Surpasses Target, Providing 57 Days of Work Annually to Job Card Holders .
The @MamataOfficial led state government's "Karmasree Scheme" has exceeded its goal of offering 50 days of work per year, achieving an average of 57 days of employment for job card holders. This initiative, fully funded by the state, aims to support job seekers who were unable to secure the full 100 days of work under other programs. This year, the scheme successfully provided employment to 75 lakh individuals, demonstrating its effectiveness in addressing unemployment and supporting livelihoods.

Sebaashray: 36 Days of Unwavering Commitment!
What began as a health camp has now become a movement—a revolution dedicated to serving the people without limits. The relentless momentum of this initiative is proof that Shri @abhishekaitc’s vision of public service is coming to life each day.

Development is truly successful when it uplifts every section of society. At #BGBS2025, Hon'ble CM @MamataOfficial made it clear: Bengal’s progress means jobs, education & welfare for all, not just a few.
Under Didi's leadership, growth and social justice go hand in hand!

BJP's Web of Deceit Exposed! @abhishekaitc delivers a scathing indictment in the #LokSabha, likening the economy's downfall to the Ramayana's tale of deception. He accuses the BJP of crony capitalism, handing over the economy to vested interests. Will this revelation spark a turning point in India's economic narrative?
